The Presentation of the Lamb
How Jesus' Early Days Fulfilled God's Promises
What happened to Jesus after the shepherds left Bethlehem? Was that the end of the significant events in His early days, or was it just the beginning? In this episode, Stephen Davey takes us beyond the manger to uncover key events that shaped Jesus' early life. You’ll learn about three ceremonies that defined Jesus' first days—the ceremony of identification, the ceremony of redemption, and the ceremony of purification. Each of these moments revealed the commitment of Mary and Joseph to God’s word and their role in God's redemptive plan.
You’ll also discover the profound story of Simeon, who held the infant Jesus and spoke prophetic words over Him. Simeon had waited his entire life to see the Messiah, and holding Jesus was the fulfillment of that promise. His response reveals what it truly means to be ready to meet God.
This episode helps you understand the depth of obedience, the fulfillment of prophecy, and why Jesus' early actions were so crucial to His mission. Don’t miss this enlightening discussion that connects the dots from the manger to the temple and beyond. It’s a story of promise, obedience, and hope that still speaks to us today.
